EuroVision: Bikini Babes Crash Italy Team Training

May 26th, 2008 | By: Laurie | 20 Comments »

Training for the Azzurri, (the Italian National Team) got a little warmer this weekend when it was crashed by two female fans. These women join what is apparently a new tradition of females streaking without getting fully naked.

(Send complaints to the Streakers Association. And while you’re at it, add my complaint that when men get female streakers, they’re lithe and fit, yet male streakers tend to be Pillsbury Doughboys who have absolutely no problem getting fully naked. Talk about unfair.)

One account I read said that one of the women was the 2006 Miss Venezuela, Marianne Puglia. A quick Wikipedia search says that she won the “Best in Swimsuit” award. And another account said that the other was a stripper from Milan.

Some guys have all the luck.

Gotta love Cana’s face. Everyone else looks baffled.

Boy Laurie, you must be the biggest advocate of equal opportunity when it comes to frontal nudity…

By Laurie | May 26th, 2008 at 12:41 pm

Marco, consider me a crusader against injustice.

where do we make our complaints to again lol

By Laurie | May 26th, 2008 at 1:41 pm

Oh, and P.S., Marco? When it comes to equal opportunity, I’d also settle for the doughboys keeping clothes ON. Actually, that would be my preference.

I read that these two women (Lisa Dalla Via and Marianne Puglia) work for the Italian tv show `Lucignolo´ and they wanted to show how weak the security of the training camp is (why they have to be half-naked doing it, I don’t know).

By Zach | May 26th, 2008 at 2:41 pm

Satine, because you can’t have Italian tv with half-naked girls!

By Zach | May 26th, 2008 at 2:41 pm

without* mind you :]

By Hana | May 26th, 2008 at 2:57 pm

Ah, only in Italy…

By Hana | May 26th, 2008 at 3:00 pm

I really wish they had a zoom-in on Pirlo’s face. Still probably would have been the sleepy, stoned expression we adore.

And Laurie, great title…way to rock that alliteration.

By Laurie | May 26th, 2008 at 3:10 pm

Thank you, Hana. We all know that I’m all about the use of poetic literary devices to enhance the reading experience.

Well, okay, poetic literary devices and gratuitous nudity.

McTalian, Canna just made this photo for me. He was the reason I picked this one over all the others on the Italy site. Although I also liked the Gattuso one.

Lucignolo is the most stupid program on Italian tv. It takes a 50-IQ person to conceive something like that, gossip and all the possible stupidity of contemporary Italian society is in that pseudo-program.

I hope this will distract the Italian team before the clash with my Netherlands

Everything you’ll see in http://footysip.com/ is copied from the original one. So lame and cheap strategy… shame on them!

I have to say these security people just went way to fast. I would have slowed down and ran behind them for a little longer. Maybe grab at them and slip, that might have taken off a little more.
